When the new Ford Bronco was teased to the public at a few off-road events around the country, Ford was hoping the hype would grow and people would fall in love with this new platform. That’s exactly what happened to Nick Tellez from Aliso Viejo, California. Nick already had a new Ford Ranger that was set up pre-runner style, so when he first got the chance to drive the Bronco, he knew immediately it was time to sell the Ranger and order a Bronco. Because his Ranger was a 2WD, he knew the limitations of it. Upgrading to the Bronco would make some of his off-road adventures even more advanced, so the swap was made for a 2022 Ford Bronco Badlands Sasquatch. Nick is a content creator for Hoonigan, so…

We all have those vehicles that blast us right back to our childhoods. Even with one quick glance, memories from decades ago can seem just like they were yesterday. Adam Pitale, founder of Adam’s Polishes, experienced this time-machine-like effect when he spotted this 1978 Bronco. Its exterior had previously been repainted and restored before he purchased it, but someone painstakingly upgraded it with the purpose of maintaining the OE styling of its heyday. “It brought me right back to when I was a kid,” Adam says about his first encounter with this ’78. “I was 7 back when these were new. This Bronco just screamed 1970s, but there was still lots to be done in order to complete the restoration.” As Adam mentioned, the Bronco’s paint and bodywork were already…

When a vehicle manufacturer comes out with a brand-new vehicle that is built to be modified and has a ton of hype behind it, it doesn’t take aftermarket companies long to start the parts development. The design process usually doesn’t take that long—getting it into production and shipped is the time-consuming part. Fortunately for Andrew Williams from Duncanville, Texas, when he picked up his 2021 Ford Bronco, he already knew the plans to modify it in time for the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. The Bronco was brand new to the market at this time, so parts weren’t readily available like they are now. This created a delay in the starting process, but Andrew had built a previous vehicle for SEMA so knew the risk of time constraints. For…

Sometimes we come across cool vehicles while looking for magazine-caliber rides, and sometimes those vehicles come with just as cool of a backstory. We found exactly that with this 1972 Bronco that Mike Manit from Reno, Nevada, owns. We were able to chat with Mike to find out more about this flawlessly built rig. It was a long process with multiple versions of this Bronco, so we had to see how that happened. Follow along as Mike tells us in his own words. BRONCO: What made you pick this specific vehicle up from the beginning? MIKE MANIT: “I purchased my 1972 Bronco nearly 30 years ago. I was working lots of hours at that time and looking for a hobby to escape to on the weekends and evenings. My dad,…

When we heard that Blake Wilkey of Urban Assault video fame was taking a quick pause from shredding asphalt to building a rock crawling Bronco he refers to as Bloodshark, our attention span was locked on nothing else. We’ve all seen footage of Wilkey ripping though cities from Las Vegas to Tijuana at breakneck speeds and flying over obstacles with the greatest of ease. The level of excitement his driving skills delivers blows right off the charts, but with his latest project he was forced to slow down dramatically as he approached a project with a different set of obstacles ahead. The vehicles that Blake typically fabricates and drives in his videos are all purpose-built to go almost anywhere. We were able to take a closeup on his Bronco when…

The great thing about building a custom truck is that just about any idea, big or small, can become a reality by staying true to the dream and grinding through problematic patches that can pop up unexpectedly. It also helps to have the right names in your contact list to help get ahead of possible setbacks. Johnny Dominguez of Alpine, California, has experienced this situation firsthand while he was building his ’91 Bronco. His objective was simple, and he planned on putting his patience to the test as he was dead set on building his off-road project slowly and methodically to ensure a successful execution the first time around. “All I really wanted was a 4WD, 4-seat pre-runner that was capable of keeping up with almost anything in the desert,”…

From car shows and cruise-ins to off-road adventures, early Ford Broncos (1966-1977) are the perfect classic car for any adventure. With more than 500 Bronco restomods under its belt, Velocity is the leader in creating world-class builds that balance vintage style and modern performance. This Adventurine Green 1971 Ford Bronco from Velocity is a perfect example, but before digging deeper into this build, here’s a little backstory detailing why the classic Ford Bronco is one of the coolest 4x4s around. Debuting in 1966, the classic Bronco was Ford’s answer to the popular International Scout and Jeep CJ-5. Smaller than the Scout, the Bronco’s compact size made it great for off-roading or farm work, but it was about a foot longer than the CJ-5, allowing for added passenger or cargo space.…

When you get right down to it, a knife consists of two distinct parts, and they’re both equally important. The blade has the sharp edge that does the knife’s work of cutting and slicing. But without a handle, that blade would be pretty tough to hold and use. A knife blade’s ability to cut is based on a variety of factors, from type of steel to profile to grind. Similarly, the handle’s comfort and ease of use are determined by its shape as well as its material. The very first handle material was likely animal hide or fibrous plant material wrapped around one end of a piece of flint or obsidian. Thankfully, though, we’ve improved handle technology since then, and knives have gotten a bit more comfortable to use. The…

When Ford announced it was bringing back the Bronco, enthusiasts went crazy in hopes the retro favorite would be what they all hoped it could be. As soon as it was produced, the aftermarket industry jumped on it and immediately started making parts to push these vehicles to the next level. Ever since the first batch of Broncos hit the lots, they had a huge presence at the annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Parts companies seek Bronco SEMA builds, so John Lindsay from Blackfoot, Idaho, jumped on the chance and picked up a 2022 Bronco Raptor. He immediately began sourcing the parts needed to make his stand out in the sea of custom vehicles at the show. John owns Nuvision LLC, which does auto glass and tint, so working…
